Title: Any Alfisti interested in selling their 159
Post by: GTA Neil on September 01, 2017, 12:10:51 AM
Hi

If anybody knows or is looking at selling their 159 please let me know. I am in the market to by a car and would love a 159. Especially one owned by an enthusiast.

Let the guys at Cileberti Motors in Ossie Park know you are looking, they usually have a couple or will know if any customers are planning to sell. You will also know that any car they sell is in good mechanical shape. I know they have a couple of sweet Brera V6s and a couple of 2.0 GTs available.

Thanks Poohbah I have given them a call and let them know. I get my guilietta and GTA serviced there. Apparently all the Barbagallo cars get sold to Zai Motors so have tried them too.

Goodo, and good luck with the hunt. Never heard of Zai Motors - where are they?

Not a 159 but would a Brera tempt you?

There's a very tidy AWD V6 Brera in red at Cileberti's at the moment.

Tempted myself.

Hi Sorry I haven't been on the forum for while. Have you managed to sell the 159 yet. Looks a great car?

Still looking for one, it's very slim pickings over here in Perth

Have you checked gumtree lately? There are a few Perth 159s listed there at the moment.

Thanks Poohbah

I've been using the Gumtree App which doesnt bring up 1 car.

Like the look of the 1750 Tbi

Apps on my phone are hit and miss too - much prefer using laptop/desktop.

Saw a silver 159 Q4 Sportwagon in the street today. It looked awesome.

Not just yet but the one on Facebook was a great looking car

I think that 1750 has gone to the wangara dealer now on gumtree - and at that mark up he can probably afford to store it for a decade [emoji849]

Given the dealer is asking $5k more than the private owner was probably means he bought it for under $17k.

There seems to be a few V6 auto Ti Q4s around if you are prepared to travel to eastern states, and want classic Rosso finish.

Love the way this AWD 3.2 V6 is advertised as an "ideal first car"....

Now be honest, as a scruffy teen, would YOU turn it down if offered to you as your first car . . . hmmmm?   ;)

I would only ever have had enough fuel in it to drive once a fortnight...

Neil, there's sharp looking AWD 3.2 Q4 for sale in Adelaide if you're still looking and up for a road trip.

I'm still set on the Ti spec but I know you guys will appreciate the sheer condition of this for an 11 year old car  ;D
